IBelize: Ukuvuselelwa Okusemthethweni Kwezokuvakasha kwe-COVID-19

Isitatimende sokuvula sikaNdunankulu waseBelize uRt. UMhlonishwa uDean Barrow:

Namuhla kugujwa usuku lwama-31 lwaseBelize ngaphandle kokuthola noma ngubani otholile ukuthi unoveli ICoronavirus. Ngakho-ke, sibambe abantu abangu-18, inani eliphelele labantu abathelelekile ezweni lethu. Kulaba, ngokudabukisayo sekushone ababili. Kepha bonke abanye sebeluleme. Ukuze iBelize manje ingelinye lamazwe nezindawo eziyi-12 emhlabeni wonke ezizoba mahhala manje njenge-COVID-19. Lokho kuyimpumelelo enkulu, futhi ngifuna ukuhalalisela bonke abantu baseBelize ngokushesha, kepha ikakhulukazi, ukukhetha abasebenzi bezidingo ezibalulekile, bonke abasebenzi ababalulekile futhi, ikakhulukazi, abasebenzi abaphambili - odokotela, abahlengikazi, bonke abasebenzi bezokwelapha .

Ngakho-ke, yize lokhu kuyimpumelelo impela, akusona isizathu sokumemezela ukunqoba. Isayensi nochwepheshe, kubandakanya noDkt.Manzanero wethu uqobo, basixwayisa ngobuwula, nobungozi, bokuba namawala angaka. Futhi okwenzeka kwamanye amazwe kunikeza izibonelo ezicacile zokuthi izinto zingashintsha kalula kanjani; ithuba lokuhlehla; ukushesha igagasi lesibili elingasifica.

Angifuni ukuba yinjabulo yokubulala. Ukuphumelela kwethu okulinganiselwe kuze kube manje kuyisizathu sokubonga, kepha akumele kubangele ukunganaki noma umuzwa wokulondeka ongamanga. Ngokuqondile lokho, kepha kubonakala ngathi kuyenzeka. Ngaso sonke isikhathi uma simemezela noma ikuphi ukuphumula kwezinyathelo zethu ezinzima, ngasikhathi sinye sikhipha izexwayiso ezinamandla. 

Yize kunjalo, abantu abaningi kakhulu babonakala bekuhumusha kabi ukwehliswa kwemikhawulo njengephasi lamahhala lokwephula ngokuphelele eminye imingcele ebalulekile esele kakhulu.

Ngiyaphinda ngiyasho: lobu bunzima abupheli futhi buyekethisa noma ukwazi ukugwema izindlela zokuvikela ezikhona kuyindlela eqinisekile yokusibuyisela emuva ku-zero zero.

Ngakho-ke, noma ngiqhubeka manje ukudweba izinyathelo ezisanda kuvunyelwana zokuqinisa ukuvala phansi, ngincenga abantu bakithi ukuthi bangakuboni lokhu njenge-carte blanche ngokuziphatha budedengu noma ukunganaki.

Ngakho-ke, manje kuzinguquko ezenziwa ku-SI esebenza njengamanje.

Ngesonto eledlule ngibhekise ekutheni i-BTB isithinte mayelana nokuqhutshwa kwezokuvakasha kwasekhaya. Amahhotela abesevele evuliwe kodwa imibuzo ibisivele ngezinto ezimbili: ukusetshenziswa kwamachibi amahhotela namabhishi; nokusetshenziswa kwezindawo zokudlela zamahhotela. IKomidi Lezokuqapha Likazwelonke, lisekelwa yiKhabhinethi, manje selinqume ukuthi ukusetshenziswa kwamachibi, ukusetshenziswa kolwandle (noma imifula uma kuyizindawo zokungcebeleka eziphakathi nezwe) kuvunyelwe. Njengenjwayelo, lokhu kungaphansi kokuqedwa komphakathi.

Ngokuphathelene nezindawo zokudlela zamahhotela, okokugcina bekuwukuthi bebenganikela ngenkonzo yasekamelweni kuphela noma ukudla abakukhiphayo. Amalungiselelo amasha azovumela ukudla ezindaweni zokudlela uma nje lezo zokudlela zinezindawo zokuhlala ezingaphandle. Futhi, ukuhlukaniswa komphakathi kuzotholakala ukuze amatafula ahlukaniswe ngamamitha ayisithupha futhi kungabi nabantu abangaphezu kwabayishumi ngasikhathi sinye.

IKhabinethi ibonile ukuthi amacala wobandlululo angavela uma singakwenzeli izindawo zokudlela, ngokuvamile, lokho esikwenzela izindawo zokudlela zamahhotela. Ngokunjalo, zonke izindawo zokudlela ezivulelekile ezweni zizovunyelwa ukuthi zivulwe futhi uma i-SI echitshiyelwe iqala ukusebenza. Ngidinga ukugcizelela futhi, kepha, ukuthi imiyalo yokuqedwa komphakathi isazosebenza. Ngempela, iNational Task Force iyathuthukisa - empeleni, iyagcwalisa namuhla - isethi yezivumelwano ezibhaliwe zokuqondisa lezi ndawo zokudlela ukuthi zisebenze kahle kanjani ngenkathi isekude nabantu.

Usebenzisa umgomo ofanayo wokungabandlululi, umphakathi wonkana manje usuzokwazi ukubhukuda emifuleni nasolwandle lwethu. Asikwazi, ngezinjongo zokuvakasha zasendaweni, ukuyikhuthaza ezindaweni zokungcebeleka, kepha siqhubeke nokukushaya ngokungemthetho ngokujwayelekile. Ngakho-ke ngokuya ngokuhlukaniswa, ukuhlukaniswa kwezikhala kanye nenani labantu abangabuthana endaweni eyodwa, abaseBelizeans bazokwazi, futhi, ukujabulela izimangaliso zethu zasemanzini.

UDokotela wethu uManza, njengoba abanye benu bazi, uyena othanda ukugijima. Ngakho-ke, ngokuqinisekile uzwelana nama-aficionados akunye nawo abekhala ngobunzima bokugijimisa ubuso. Imibhalo yezokwelapha ifakazela umqondo wokuthi lezi zimaski azidingekile ukuzivocavoca umzimba ngaphandle. Ngakho-ke, leyo mfuneko ibanjiwe, ngakho-ke, abantu "abagcina bephilile" manje sebengaphefumula kalula ngokoqobo.

Amasonto manje angabamba izinkonzo ezindaweni zawo zokwakha, yize engaphansi komkhawulo wabantu abayishumi. Ngokuya ngenqubekela phambili yethu yokulwa ne-Corona, kufanele sikhuphule lo mkhawulo emasontweni ambalwa alandelayo.

Ukubuya ngokusemthethweni kwamaBelizeans, kufaka phakathi abafundi, abafuna ukubuyiselwa ezweni labo, sekuzoqala. Labo abafisa ukubuyela emakhaya kufanele babhalele uMnyango Wezangaphandle noma amanxusa ethu futhi babonise ukuthi bangathanda ukufika nini futhi nini. Ukugeleza ngokusobala kuzofanele kulawulwe - asikwazi ukuthi wonke umuntu abuye ngasikhathi sinye - futhi bonke ababuyayo bazobekwa ekuphepheni kwezinsuku eziyi-14. Manje, abakwa-Belizean border jumpers bazoqhubeka nokubhekana namacala obugebengu kepha nabo bazobekwa bodwa bodwa ngaphambi kokuthi kuqulwe ukuqulwa kwecala labo. Bazoboshelwa ngisho nangaphambi kokuba bayiswe enkantolo ukuze bayiswe enkantolo, futhi ngemuva kokukhishwa enkantolo, uma benikezwa ibheyili, basabuyela ekuhlukanisweni. Uma bethola ibheyili, babuyela ekuvalelweni, bese kuthi ekupheleni kwezinsuku eziyi-14, labo abangakayinikwa ibheyili bazodluliselwa Ejele Elikhulu.   

Ukuxoxwa kwalesi sigaba esisha ekwenziweni kwemikhawulo ngokwemvelo kuncenga umbuzo wezigidi eziningi zamadola: izovulwa nini imingcele yethu futhi ikakhulukazi, i-PGIA izosebenza kabusha?

Ngiyesaba ukuthi anginayo impendulo ephelele engingayinikeza, kepha ngingasho lokhu kakhulu. Sicabanga ukwelashwa okukhethekile nokwehlukile kwe-PGIA, ngethemba lokuthi ukungena jikelele eBelize ngendiza kungaqala ngisho nangaphambi kokungena ngomhlaba nangolwandle. Ngakho-ke, ukuqala kabusha kukaJulayi 1 kwezindiza zomhlaba wonke kuyithemba eliqinile kithi sonke. Ngempela, kube yimbangela yokuhlelwa kwezokuvakasha okwenzeka manje esethuthukile kakhulu. Ngeshwa, noma kunjalo, kufanele sivume ukuthi kungenzeka kube khona ukubuyela emuva. Ngaphandle kokuthi, ngokwesibonelo, noma ngabe isivivinyo esisheshayo siyatholakala ukuze sihlole izivakashi noma lezo zivakashi zingakhipha isitifiketi sokuzivikela samaphasipoti esanelisayo, kunzima ukubona ukuthi singaqhubeka kanjani. Ngaphandle kwalokho, sizoba nezingozi ezingamukeleki ezingaholela ekuhlehliseni konke esesikwazile ukukufeza kulo mkhankaso owandisiwe wokulwa neCoronavirus.

Ukungaqiniseki kuyadabukisa kakhulu kepha ukubhekana nezinhloso ezihambayo kungenye yezinkinga eziyinhloko zalolu bhubhane.

Ngivala lesi sici sokuqala esifushane sanamuhla ngokuqinisekisa ukuthi umqondo wokwenza ukuthi i-SI echitshiyelwe iqale ukusebenza ngalo Lwesihlanu, Meyi 15. Ukubhalwa kwalo mbhalo kwenzeka namanje futhi u-AG kusasa, ngesitayela sakhe esivamile esingenakulinganiswa, uzodabula inguqulo yokugcina nehloniphekile.

Ake ngiphendukele manje embuzweni womhlangano ebenginawo izolo ekuseni ne-Association of Public Service Senior Managers, iPublic Service Union neBelize National Teachers Union.

Bengicabanga ukuthi, sifinyelele esivumelwaneni ngokuya ngokuqinisekiswa ubulungu obujwayelekile bezinyunyana. Umphathi wami omkhulu wabhala amanothi amaningi, waqaphela kahle, futhi ekugcineni, washo ngesikhundla sokuphakanyiswa sokugcina se-Unions GOB. Yilokho ebengicabanga ukuthi bavumelana ngakho. Sasibhala phansi leso sivumelwano somlomo futhi uNobhala Wezezimali wasithumela ezinyunyaneni. Bheka-ke, nokho, namhlanje ekuseni sithole impendulo evela kuMongameli we-BNTU, ekhulumela i-PSU yize kungeyona i-APSSM, futhi leyo mpendulo icele ukuthi kushintshwe amagama abucayi. Izinguquko ezinjalo, ngokubona kwami, zingashintsha kakhulu umoya wesivumelwano ngakho-ke, azemukeleki kuHulumeni. UNobhala Wezezimali usezinhlelweni zokubhala abhalele lezi zinyunyana ezimbili; ngakho-ke, sizobuyela esikweleni esisodwa ngaphandle kokuthi bamukele empeleni ulimi oluvunyelwene ngomlomo izolo.

Kepha ngiyaphinda ngiyasho: akunakuba ukuthi siyaqhubeka nokuphikisana ngomhlatshelo esiwucela kulezi Zinyunyana ezimbili. I-APSSM isivele ivumile. Isithombe esikhudlwana ukuthi amaholo abo amakhulu kanye nokuvikeleka kwemisebenzi kuqinisekiswa kahle kakhulu naphezu kokuwa kwemali kaHulumeni. Emkhakheni ozimele, alikho ikilasi labasebenzi elikhululwe ngale ndlela, futhi izinkulungwane eziningi kakhulu zabantu zilahlekelwe yikho konke ukuziphilisa. Ezimweni, esikucelayo kwi-PSU ne-BNTU kunengqondo impela, kunengqondo kakhulu abanye abangasho.

Kepha umqondo akuwona owokuxabana. Ukusho lokho, ukuthi umphumela wokuboniswa kokwamukelwa noma ukungamukelwa yizinyunyana wudaba lomqondo womphakathi. Mayelana nokuma kwawo okusemqoka kulolu daba, ngakho-ke, uHulumeni akaguquki.

Ngikholwa ukuthi isimo sokuvinjelwa eWestern Border sixazululiwe futhi ngingajabula ukunweba kulokhu njengoba manje sesiqhubeka esigabeni semibuzo nezimpendulo.

Ngiyabonga.
